Stephanie Rometa Hawkins Patterson

With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of our beloved Stephanie Rometa Hawkins Patterson, born February 2, 1965, in Shreveport, Louisiana, to Clovis Darrell Clark Sr. and Betty Jane (Jackson) Clark. 

Stephanie filled our lives with love and warmth as the cherished wife of Bobby Ray Patterson and loving mother of Breona Renay Hawkins. She also leaves behind a cherished stepdaughter, Nikki Patterson and grandson, Jayden Patterson.

Stephanie shared an unbreakable bond with her siblings: Clovis Clark Jr, Rickey Clark (Pam Clark), Pamela Mack (James Mack), Dewanda Clark, Barbara Gaston (Otis Gaston), and Casondra Clark, along with numerous nieces and nephews. Stephanie was known for her delicious southern-style cooking, and her home was a place of joy and togetherness during family holidays.

Stephanie' legacy of love, kindness, and faith will forever live on in our hearts. While we mourn her passing, we celebrate the beautiful life she lived and the countless lives she touched. May she rest in eternal peace, surrounded by the love she generously shared with us all.
